Thanks for admitting the fix - it might have been better if you'd done it honestly up front (I note the "digitally manipulated" tag.

I thought I had ...what did you think "digitally manipulated" meant ? ...what would you have me do ?

In any event who are you to criticise me ? .....It's not a competition.

...I'd be very surprised if you don't use Photoshop or similar but you don't bother mentioning it.

I suggest you keep your rudeness to yourself.

It was a great manipulation congrats and it was the first tag too, I just hope that I can get some of these next weekend too last year they regrouped over the housing areas by the Tower, my wife said I would have got great shots if I stayed at home...We were all pushed around by over zealous security people last year on the front, and we lost each other in the hubbub.

It all centres around South Pier so to get a better view of it all head to South Shore but there are thousands of folks there be warned. Chen
